I watched almost all of this, in real time, with no recording devices and nobody in real life to discuss it with. I didn't have soap magazines, so I had no way to fill in any episodes I missed. But most of this is very familiar to me. Hard to believe it's been 49 years! I remember all of this vividly except for Matt McAllister. But I do remember seeing a clip of Matt McAllister in this thread a few months ago. Well okay it's a big exaggeration to say I remember it vividly -- it's tiny bits of memories from decades ago, so it's now quite fuzzy in my mind. But when I was watching, I felt it vividly -- I guess I can say I remember my own vivid emotions that I felt while watching. -
I remember the arrival of three Webber siblings, and I liked Terri. (I know the Terry on GH most discussed by viewers was 1980s Brock's daughter, but this was someone else entirely, and a decade earlier). I think I remember Terri as having reddish hair? so I just googled the actress but can't find any color photos from that year. (I don't remember Pat Lambert at all)

Sadly, that was more than some African-American characters get on soaps today. -
I've been rewatching old episodes of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine on ParamountPlus. There are times when Captain Sisko visits his father in New Orleans. Sisko's father runs a restaurant with specific local New Orleans cuisine, and we actually see and hear him recommending specific dishes to the restaurant customers. I can almost smell the aromas. I'd like to see occasional mention of the menu at Orphey Gene's Soul Food Cafe. Someone orders something, or mentions how much they enjoy something. They named Orphey Gene's after MVJ's mother. I want to feel it as a soul food restaurant and not as a generic diner set for conversations. I mean it obviously it will still be used as set for conversations, but give it more specific atmosphere.

Yes but, after Lucas, Lance, Leslie, Lorie, Bill Bell definitely had a “house code” when it came to character naming conventions. -
IKR. I hollered just now. I totally agree. Even now the Doug/Joey/Vanessa storyline is moving from C to B and doesn't even touch on the crooked cop part of Joey's storyline. It's similar to what they did with Martin's secret...just idling on the backburner all of Month 2 until this month regaining a build to it. I feel the same about the crooked cop storyline. And I can't wait for the police fundraiser. Hoping to see more of Jacob's family then as well. -
LOL @Taoboi and I posted the same thing at the same time. And during the convo between Anita and police chief Elon, we learned that Elon's wife (Jacob's mother) is the police dispatcher and Jacob's brother is another cop. So maybe the reveal will happen after the entire family is shown onscreen?

LOL. Great minds.

Don't insult the deliciousness of the Orphey Gene's food like that!Please register in order to view this content
Wasn't that poised for August, though? Or was that another event?
